Once the smoke hits the lungs and
you picture it hand in hand
with the sight of her adorable gaze,
you know you'll be in trance for days.

Merely laughter, merely the exchange
of looks and guesses feels strange
enough to question if this is what you
live for, what you were made to do.

Love her, fiercely but quietly, quite
lovely, fairly touched and very bright,
make her know she is worth the fight.

Was it ever more than certain, like this,
the things you hated, the flaws created,
will turn into the greatest that you'll miss.
